...University race at New London. If any decision in this matter is to be reached this summer it ought to be made at once, to enable the contestants to make the necessary preparations. As Mr. Livingston has taken the first step, it is only fair for his college to support him, and we understand that if a formal challenge is received from Yale it will be favorably considered...

The single-sculls will attract no little attention, and the Union and Harvard four-oars ought to make a good race. It is a matter of regret, however...
